Stirling Lane and Vennels

27/3/2025

0 Comments

 
As part of the wider Stirling Conservation Area Regeneration Scheme (CARS) three historic pedestrian routes within the Old Town are being revitalised. we invite you to a
Drop In Event at Made in Stirling CIC, 44 King Street, Stirling FK8 1AY on Saturday 5th April from 10am – 2pm. Members of the Project Team will be on hand to discuss and gather your feedback.

Kingstables Lane, the Upper and Sma' Vennels are historic pedestrian routes within the public realm of the city which form a valuable part of Stirling's character adding to its interest and complexity as a medieval Burgh. Each route faces its own challenges whether it be antisocial behaviour issues, steep gradients or extensive refuse storage. The Public Realm project aims to undertake repair, restoration and enhancement works to improve the floor scape surfaces and install enhanced lighting encouraging future use and exploration. 

We are keen to hear your views.

Edward Burns uploaded a video about Stirling to his Youtube channel (Ed Explores Scotland). The video’s called, ‘STIRLING – Old & New (The Architect’s Dilemma)           

In the video he has tried to explain why he thinks the top of the town in Stirling feels cold and clinical, and lacks the atmosphere and vibrancy of the Stirling of old. He understands that it was important to tackle slum housing, but asked if so many old buildings needed demolished? www.youtube.com/@EdExploresScotland
